Default scale to page error in Excel 2007

somehow something has changed in my Excel 2007 setup where my "fit to scale"
does not work appropriately. When I choose print preview, the preview screen
changes to a very small preview and my document is a few thousand pages.
This document used to print fine on one page. Even on my other computer it
prints fine.
The funny thing is, when I change it back to 100% scale the preview is large
again but still cuts off a few columns.
I must have changed some setting that I need to reset but cannot find it.
Any help is appreciated.

Have you checked your setting of print area?

Default scale to page error in Excel 2007

which settings specifically? When my print settings are 100%, it shows that
it will print on 4 pages. when I choose 1 page wide and 1 page long, the
scale changes to less that 100% but the size of the preview picture changes
to a small view. It doesn't squeeze the printout to fit.
This specific file used to work on this computer. I've either downloaded an
"update" or changed a setting somewhere. It is not limited to this file
either.

Default scale to page error in Excel 2007

I don't know where the Print Area settings are in Excel 2007, but I think
from some of the 2003 to 2007 crib sheets that it's accessible via "Page
Layout" and "Page Setup".

Some hints on 2003 to 2007 command mapping:
